Sound Off

Monday, November 12, 2012

When will people realize the government doesn’t run the country? Big business and billionaires do.

-- Washington Township I am a senior from the Depression years. Regarding the Sound Off caller from Eastpointe who was appalled at the disrespect for our president: What about President Clinton not showing respect for the Oval Office by having sex and lying about it?

-- Warren I am surprised that the Republican Party has not blamed President Obama for the hurricane that hit New Jersey. They blame him for everything else.

-- Macomb Township Honda is one of America’s best selling automobiles and is built in the United States by nonunion American workers. If Honda did what the caller from St. Clair Shores suggests and takes its business elsewhere, many more thousands of Americans would lose their jobs. The caller possesses typical liberal thinking.

-- Fraser I am tired of hearing that we have daylight-saving time so that children do not have to go to school in the dark. That is nonsense. When I attended school, school started at 9 a.m. and got out at 3:30 p.m.

-- Harrison Township The fascination for President Obama reminds me that evil always appears as the wolf in sheep’s clothing. Then the weakling is consumed.

-- Eastpointe I will bet the rest of my lifetime income -- and that is a large bet -- that Republicans will never destroy Social Security, Medicare and women’s right to have an abortion. On the other hand, I will make the same wager that Democrats destroy these programs. Jobs are needed to support Social Security, and Obama hates the free enterprise system that provides Social Security revenue. Obama has already confiscated $760 billion from Medicare to finance ObamaCare. In several communist countries you are only allowed to have one child. Have more than one child and the communist state takes it away. Liberals do promote communist philosophy. Republicans will continue to honor Roe vs. Wade. Always remember one thing. Communist philosophy thrives on ignorance. Communists spread lies because they know people will believe them.

-- Eastpointe Jim Fouts is an embarrassment to the city of Warren. He wanted to postpone Halloween. Is he going to move Christmas to April?

-- WarrenPresident Obama has drones. What happens when the drones end up in the hands of Russia and China?

-- Chesterfield Township A great big thank you goes to the St. Clair Shores Cops for Kids for a fabulous inexpensive evening when the Detroit Red Wings played the St. Clair Shores officers and the Lakeview hockey alumni. It was a fun evening. The kids and adults had a great time.
